Shares to go up on upbeat sentiment
The Vietnamese stock market is forecast to maintain an upward trend this week on upbeat investor sentiment, after seven consecutive gaining weeks of the market with increased liquidity.
Viet Nam’s benchmark VN-Index on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) increased 1.49 per cent to close Friday at 1,067.46 points.

Tran Xuan Bach, a stock analyst at Bao Viet Securities Co (BVSC), said the market would possibly face correction pressure during early sessions before rebounding toward this weekend.
“The index maintains a positive uptrend with a target price of 1,100 - 1,110 points. However, various stocks have become overbought, which may lead to strong volatility and correction pressure to the index,” he said.
“The cash flow tends to shift among stock sectors seeking profits. Small and mid-cap stocks are likely to flourish in the next few sessions.
“The stock exposure should be maintained at 50 per cent - 70 per cent of the total investment. Investors should hold stocks in the portfolio and consider lowering short-term positions during the exciting rally market from the beginning of the session or at the market’s resistance zone 1,100 - 1,110 points.”
